'''Bane of Arthropods''' is an [[Minecraft:enchantment]] applied to [[Minecraft:sword]]s, [[Minecraft:axe]]s, [[Minecraft:spear]]s, and [[Minecraft:mace]]s that substantially increases melee damage against [[Minecraft:arthropod]] mobs and applies [[Minecraft:Slowness]] IV to them.

== Obtaining ==
Bane of Arthropods can be obtained from [[Minecraft:enchanting tables]], drops from mobs that have spawned in a [[Minecraft:raid]]{{only|bedrock}}, books obtained by [[Minecraft:fishing]], librarian [[Minecraft:villager]]s, and in the following structure loot chests: [[Minecraft:desert pyramid]]s, [[Minecraft:stronghold]]s, [[Minecraft:ocean ruins]], [[Minecraft:ancient cities]], [[Minecraft:mansion]]s, [[Minecraft:pillager outpost]]s, [[Minecraft:mineshaft]]s, [[Minecraft:monster room]]s, [[Minecraft:jungle pyramid]]s, and from vaults in [[Minecraft:trial chambers]].

== Usage ==
Each level on a [[Minecraft:sword]], [[Minecraft:axe]], [[Minecraft:spear]], or [[Minecraft:mace]] adds {{hp|2.5}} extra damage to each hit on the following mobs:
*{{EntityLink|Bee|Bees}}
*{{EntityLink|Cave Spider|Cave Spiders}}
*{{EntityLink|Endermite|Endermites}}
*{{EntityLink|Silverfish}}
*{{EntityLink|Spider|Spiders}}

{{IN|BE}}, the damage is rounded down.

The enchantment also inflicts [[Minecraft:Slowness]] IV on an arthropod when hit, with a random duration between 1 and 1.5 seconds at level I, increasing the maximum duration by 0.5 seconds at each level, up to 3.5 seconds with Bane of Arthropods V.

=== Damage per hit ===
These tables detail how much damage is done per attack based on the level of enchantment used, assuming the target is not wearing armor and the attack is fully charged.{{only|java}} While both Java Edition and Bedrock Edition add {{hp|2.5}} per level, Bedrock Edition rounds down to the nearest whole number which makes Bane of Arthropods I, Bane of Arthropods III, and Bane of Arthropods V weaker than Java Edition.

=== Specific cases ===
If Bane of Arthropods is applied to a [[Minecraft:trident]] by use of [[Minecraft:command]]s or an [[Minecraft:anvil]] in Creative, the enchantment affects the weapon's thrown projectile. If Bane of Arthropods is applied to a [[Minecraft:bow]] by use of commands or an anvil in Creative, the enchantment affects the weapon's [[Minecraft:arrow]]s. If Bane of Arthropods is applied to a [[Minecraft:crossbow]] by use of commands or an anvil in Creative, the enchantment affects weapon's arrows but not its [[Minecraft:firework rocket]]s.

==Incompatibilities==
Bane of Arthropods is incompatible with [[Minecraft:Sharpness]], [[Minecraft:Smite]], [[Minecraft:Density]], [[Minecraft:Breach]], and [[Minecraft:Cleaving]].{{upcoming|Java Combat Tests|nocat=1}} It is also incompatible with [[Minecraft:Impaling]], however in Survival this incompatibility cannot be encountered, as no weapon types have access to both Bane of Arthropods and Impaling. If [[Minecraft:command]]s are used to have two or more of these enchantments on the same item, their effects stack.{{only|java}}
